Longnine, Mike, and the boardmembers with lyrical signatures, names (terrapin Will, where are you?) and avatars
What are songs with coin references? All I can immediately come up with is On Broadway (George Benson and others all sang it) "when all you got is one thin dime...and one thin dime won't even shine your shoes..."
and Allman Bros -Midnight Rider "and I got one more silver dollar..."

For the old timers there is "We're in the MOney" by Dubin & Warren, and for the youngsters there is always, "Money, Money, Money" by Abba.

Don't forget my personal favorite- "Here's a Quarter, Call Someone Who Cares"! Of course, good luck finding a pay phone anywhere, and if you do it costs at least 35 cents, but hey- it's still a great song!!

Rachel That IS a great song! Ageka- that's the spirit- a specific coin- hapenny and penny Grovey- is that 09s VDB penny line for real? That has to be the best numismatic reference! I thought of another, nongreat song- Put anothr dime in the jukebox baby- I love rock 'n Roll- Joan Jett Edited by SFDukie

Oliver Twist ( Film )
Starting price for buying oliver : seven guineas
BOY FOR SALE
Oliver is brought to Mr. Bumble with all his worldly belongings in a
small bundle. Bumble takes him off to sell, singing:
One boy,
Boy for sale.
He's going cheap.
Only seven guineas.
That or thereabouts.
Small boy,
Rather pale
From lack of sleep.
Feed him gruel dinners;
Stop him getting stout.
If I should say he wasn't very greedy,
I could not, I'd be telling you a tale.
One boy,
Boy for sale.
Come take a peep.
Have you ever seen
As nice a boy for sale?
